In 1569 Takeda Shingen invaded Hojo-controlled Sagami and attempted a number of sieges that culminated in an abortive effort to take [[Odawara castle|Odawara]]. Shingen soon retreated after doing some damage to Odawara's outer works. The Takeda army was attacked in the Mimase pass by a Hojo army under Ujiteru and his brother Ujikuni. The Takeda vanguard, which included [[Baba Nobufusa]], was hard-pressed; Takeda Shingen himself led up the Takeda's main body and the tide of the hard-fought battle was turned by a furious attack by [[Yamagata Masakage]]. The Hojo were defeated and forced to retreat north, allowing the Takeda to return to Kai - though leaving behind some 900 dead.
